Commitment Letter

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Intelsat Jackson Holdings S.A. (“Intelsat”, “you” or “your”) has (i) advised the parties listed on the signature pages hereto as Commitment Parties (each, a “Commitment Party” and, collectively, the “Commitment Parties”, “we”, “us” or “our”), that Intelsat and certain of its subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary Debtors” and, collectively with you, the “Debtors”), have filed voluntary petitions (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code, 11 U.S.C. §§ 101 et seq. (as amended, the “Bankruptcy Code”), and (ii) in connection with the foregoing, requested that the Commitment Parties agree to commit, subject solely to the conditions set forth in Section 5 below, (1) to provide $500,000,000 of commitments for a $1,000,000,000 superpriority 364-day debtor-in-possession term loan A credit facility (the “Term Loan A Facility”), (2) to provide $500,000,000 of commitments for a $3,375,000,000 debtor-in-possession term loan B credit facility (the “Term Loan B Facility” and, together with the Revolving Facility and the Term Loan A Facility, the “Credit Facilities”) and (3) to purchase $3,000,000,000 of senior secured notes (the “New Secured Notes”), in each case, for you under Sections 364(c) and 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code (together, the “Debt Facilities”), which Debt Facilities shall survive the emergence of the Debtors from bankruptcy under the Bankruptcy Code. Unless otherwise specified herein, all references to “$” shall refer to U.S. dollars. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meaning assigned thereto in the term sheets attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Credit Facilities Term Sheet”) and Exhibit B (the “Secured Notes Term Sheet” and, together with the Credit Facilities Term Sheet, the “Term Sheets”; the Term Sheets, together with this letter, the “Commitment Letter”).

1.	Commitment.

To provide assurance that the Debt Facilities shall be available on the terms and conditions set forth herein and in each Term Sheet, each Commitment Party is pleased to advise Intelsat of its commitment (the “Commitment”) to provide or purchase, as applicable, itself or through one or more funds managed by such Commitment Party, or through entities for which such Commitment Party acts as investment advisor, sub-advisor or manager of discretionary accounts, in each case, on a several and not joint basis in accordance with allocations between such funds, accounts or entities as determined at its discretion, the amount of the Term Loan A Facility, Term Loan B Facility and New Secured Notes, each as set forth on Schedule 1 hereto, on the terms set forth in the applicable Term Sheet, subject solely to the conditions set forth in Section 5 below that are applicable to the relevant Debt Facility. It is understood and agreed that the commitments of the Commitment Parties under this Commitment Letter shall be several

and not joint. The Commitment Parties and you acknowledge that additional lenders (the “Additional Lenders”) have separately provided (1) commitments for a $500,000,000 superpriority secured debtor-in-possession revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”), (2) $500,000,000 of commitments for the Term Loan A Facility and (3) $2,875,000,000 of commitments for the Term Loan B Facility pursuant to a separate commitment letter, term sheet and fee letter dated the date hereof (collectively, the “Bank Commitment Letter”). If any term of the Bank Commitment Letter that applies to any loan under the Term Loan A Facility or Term Loan B Facility is modified as a result of any “flex” provision or any other provision increasing pricing, fees, yield or economics therein (such modification, “Market Flex”), you agree to immediately notify the Commitment Parties thereof, and the terms of the applicable Credit Facility shall be updated automatically to incorporate such Market Flex. Lead Arrangers may provide seasoning and/or fronting services for the Commitment Parties with respect to their commitments to the Term Loan A Facility and Term Loan B Facility pursuant to arrangements to be agreed.

With respect to the loans under the Term Loan A Facility and Term Loan B Facility, each Commitment Party agrees that it will not offer, sell or resell, contract to sell or resell or otherwise dispose of (or enter into any transaction that is designed to, or might reasonably be expected to, result in the disposition by such Commitment Party), directly or indirectly, any loans under the Term Loan A Facility or Term Loan B Facility committed to hereunder (in each case, subject to de minimis exceptions to be agreed) until 30 days after the earlier of (x) the Syndication Date (as defined in Annex I of the Credit Facilities Term Sheet) and (y) 60 days after the Confirmation Order is approved by the Bankruptcy Court. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other “lock-up” provision, if a Commitment Party, in its reasonable judgment, determines that it is advisable to sell or otherwise dispose of loans under the Term Loan A Facility and/or Term Loan B Facility to (a) satisfy one or more redemption requests that would reduce the total net asset value of any fund or account to 50% or less of the net asset value of such Commitment Party as of the date hereof; or (b) with respect to any Commitment Party that is a separate account, satisfy the request of any separate account to liquidate and close such account, then the “lock-up provisions” shall not apply to the disposition of loans under the Term Loan A Facility and/or Term Loan B Facility deemed advisable by such Commitment Party, in its reasonable judgment, to satisfy such requests. The applicable Commitment Party will notify the Intelsat in writing at least 24 hours before any such sale or disposition and specify the total amount of the loans under the Term Loan A Facility and/or Term Loan B Facility, as applicable, to be sold or disposed, the date and time such sale or disposition may begin (the “Release Time”), and the reason for such sale or disposition, so that the Issuer may satisfy any obligations it may have to provide a pro rata reciprocal release to other Commitment Parties subject to substantially the same restrictions as those set forth herein, provided, further, that any such reciprocal releases shall not be effective prior to the Release Time. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the restrictions in this paragraph shall not apply to assignments of Term Loans committed to hereunder from Barclays Bank PLC to one or more investment funds, separate accounts, or other entities owned (in whole or in part), controlled, managed, and/or advised by Apollo Capital Management, L.P., or any of its Affiliates.

2.	Offering; No Fiduciary Duty; Affiliates.

The Commitment Parties holding Commitments with respect to the New Secured Notes hereby agree to assist the lead arranger for the Credit Facilities, as reasonably requested, in receiving league table credit with respect to the New Secured Notes.

You acknowledge and agree that nothing in this Commitment Letter or the nature of our services or in any prior relationship will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship between any Commitment Party or their respective affiliates and managed and advised funds, on the one hand, and you, your equity holders, your creditors or your affiliates (or your affiliates’ equity holders or creditors), on the other hand, and you waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims you may have against any Commitment Party, any Agent or their respective affiliates and managed and advised funds for breach

of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty in connection with this Commitment Letter or the transactions contemplated hereby, and agree that no Commitment Party, or affiliates of any Commitment Party will have any liability (whether direct or indirect) to you in respect of such a fiduciary duty claim or to any person asserting a fiduciary duty claim on your behalf, including your equity holders, affiliates, employees or creditors. You acknowledge that the transactions contemplated hereby (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions and that we are acting as principal and in our own respective best interests. You are relying on your own experts and advisors to determine whether the transactions contemplated hereby are in your best interests and are capable of evaluating and understanding, and you understand and accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby. In addition, you acknowledge that we may employ the services of our respective affiliates and managed and advised funds in providing certain services hereunder and may exchange with such affiliates and managed and advised funds information concerning Intelsat and other companies that may be the subject of the transactions contemplated hereby and such affiliates and managed and advised funds will be entitled to the benefits afforded to us and the Agents hereunder; provided that any such affiliates and managed and advised funds receiving information concerning Intelsat and other companies in accordance with this paragraph shall be subject to the same confidentiality obligations provided for in this Commitment Letter (with each Commitment Party responsible for its affiliates’ and managed and advised funds’ compliance with such obligation).

You understand that each Commitment Party is engaged in a wide range of financial services and businesses, and, in furtherance of the foregoing, you acknowledge and agree that the obligations set forth in this Commitment Letter shall only apply to the trading desk(s) and/or business group(s) of the Commitment Party that principally manages and/or supervises such Commitment Party’s Commitment, and shall not apply to any other affiliate, trading desk or business group of such Commitment Party.

3.	Information.

You hereby represent and warrant that (a) all written information concerning you and your subsidiaries and your and their respective business (other than financial projections, estimates, forecasts and budgets and other forward-looking information (collectively, the “Projections”) and information of a general economic or industry specific nature) (the “Information”) that has been or will be made available to us or any of our respective affiliates or managed and advised funds by or on behalf of you is or will be, when furnished, complete and correct in all material respects, when taken as a whole, and does not or will not, when furnished, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein, when taken as a whole, not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made (after giving effect to the updates provided for in the antepenultimate sentence of this Section 3) and (b) the Projections that have been or will be made available to us or any of our affiliates or managed and advised funds by or on behalf of you or any of your representatives have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions that are believed by you to be reasonable at the time made and at the time the related Projections are made available to us or any of our affiliates and managed and advised funds (it being acknowledged that (i) such Projections are merely a prediction as to future events and are not to be viewed as facts, (ii) such Projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond your control, (iii) the actual results during the period or periods covered by any such Projections may differ significantly from the projected results, and (iv) no guarantee or assurance can be given that the projected results will be realized). In particular, where Projections expressly or implicitly take into account the current market volatility and widespread impact of the COVID-19 outbreak, the extent of the impact of these developments on the Debtors’ and their subsidiaries’ operational and financial performance will depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak and related governmental advisories and restrictions, and the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on overall demand for the Debtors’ and their subsidiaries’ products and services, all of which are outside of the control of the Debtors or their

subsidiaries, highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. You agree that if, at any time prior to the Secured Notes Closing Date or Credit Facilities Closing Date, you become aware that any of the representations, warranties and covenants in the preceding sentence would be incorrect in any material respect if the Information and Projections were being furnished, and such representations, warranties and covenants were being made, at such subsequent time, then you will promptly supplement the Information and the Projections so that such representations, warranties and covenants would be correct in material respects; provided that any such update shall be deemed to have cured any breach of such representation if such representation is true after giving effect to such update. The accuracy of the foregoing representations and warranties, whether or not cured, shall not be a condition to the obligations of the Commitment Parties hereunder or the availability of the Debt Facilities. You understand that in arranging and syndicating the Debt Facilities we may use and rely on the Information and Projections without independent verification thereof.

Fees.

5.	Conditions.

The Commitment Parties’ Commitments and agreements hereunder in respect of (x) the Credit Facilities are subject solely to the conditions set forth in Annex I of the Credit Facilities Term Sheet with respect to the Credit Facilities Closing Date, and, with respect to the Conversion Date, Annex II of the Credit Facilities Term Sheet and (y) the New Secured Notes are subject solely to the conditions set forth in Annex I of the Secured Notes Term Sheet with respect to the Secured Notes Closing Date and, with respect to the Conversion Date, Annex II of the Secured Notes Term Sheet. There are no conditions (implied or otherwise) to the commitments hereunder in respect of the Debt Facilities, and there will be no conditions (implied or otherwise) to the availability of the Debt Facilities on the Secured Notes Closing Date or the Credit Facilities Closing Date, as applicable, including compliance with the terms of this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter, the Credit Agreement or the Indenture (as defined in the Secured Notes Term Sheet), other than those that are expressly stated or referenced in this Section 5.

6.	Indemnification and Expenses.

You agree to (a) indemnify and hold harmless each Commitment Party and its affiliates and managed, advised and sub-advised funds and accounts, and its and their affiliates’ officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, accountants, advisors (including investment managers and advisers), consultants, representatives, controlling persons, members and permitted successors and assigns (each, a “Protected Person”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, joint or several (“Losses”) to which any such Protected Person may become subject arising out of or in connection with this Commitment Letter, any Debt Facility, the use of proceeds thereof or any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, and to (b) reimburse each Commitment Party from time to time within thirty (30) days following receipt of their written demand (together with reasonable backup documentation supporting such reimbursement request) for any reasonable and documented legal or other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with or arising out of, this Commitment Letter, any Debt Facility, the use of proceeds thereof or investigating or defending any such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, including the expenses of one primary counsel for all Protected Persons (taken as a whole) and to the extent reasonably necessary, one local counsel for all Protected Persons (taken as a whole) in each relevant jurisdiction (and, solely in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel as necessary to the Protected Persons actually affected

by such conflict taken as a whole in each relevant jurisdiction) and one Federal Communications Commission counsel incurred in connection with the Debt Facilities, the enforcement of this Commitment Letter, the definitive documentation for the Debt Facilities, and any ancillary documents and security arrangements in connection therewith, but no other third-party financial advisors without your prior written consent; provided that the foregoing indemnity will not, as to any Protected Person, apply to Losses to the extent (a) they are found in a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from (i) the gross negligence, bad faith, fraud or willful misconduct of a Protected Person or its controlled affiliates or related parties or (ii) the material breach of the obligations of a Protected Person or its controlled affiliates or related parties under this Commitment Letter, or (b) they relate to a dispute solely among Protected Persons (or any of their controlled affiliates or related parties) and not arising out of any act or omission of the Debtors or any of their respective subsidiaries (other than any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding against any Agent or the Lead Arranger (each as defined in the Bank Commitment Letter) in their respective capacities or in fulfilling their applicable role as such). This Section 6 shall not apply with respect to taxes other than any taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-tax claim.

Except as may be set forth in the definitive documentation for the Debt Facilities, none of you, the other Debtors, any of your or their respective subsidiaries, we nor any other Protected Person will be responsible or liable to one another for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages which may be alleged as a result of or arising out of, or in any way related to, the Debt Facilities, the enforcement of this Commitment Letter, the definitive documentation for the Debt Facilities, or any ancillary documents and security arrangements in connection therewith; provided that your indemnity and reimbursement obligations under this Section 6 shall not be limited by this sentence to the extent any Protected Person is required to make actual payments in respect of such damages to third parties.

This Commitment Letter may not be amended or any provision hereof waived or modified except by an instrument in writing signed by the Commitment Parties and you.

This offer will automatically expire at such time if the Commitment Parties have not received such executed counterparts in accordance with the preceding sentence. This Commitment Letter and the Commitments and agreements hereunder shall automatically terminate (1) with respect to the New Secured Notes Commitments, on the earliest of (i) the Secured Notes Closing Date, (ii) seven (7) days after the date of this Commitment Letter, if Intelsat shall not have filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Commitment Parties, for approval of this Commitment Letter and the transactions contemplated hereby on or prior to such date, (iii) unless the Commitment Parties shall, in their sole discretion, agree in writing to an extension (which agreement may be evidenced by email of counsel), the date that is 60 days after the date on which the Confirmation Order (as defined in the Plan Support Agreement) is entered by the Bankruptcy Court (the “Secured Notes Commitment Termination Date”) and (iv) May 6, 2022 and (2) with respect to the Term Loan A Facility Commitments and the Term Loan B

Facility Commitments, on the earliest of (i) the Credit Facilities Closing Date, (ii) seven (7) days after the date of this Commitment Letter, if Intelsat shall not have filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Commitment Parties, for approval of this Commitment Letter and the transactions contemplated hereby on or prior to such date, and (iii) May 6, 2022 (the “Term Commitment Termination Date”, and together with the Secured Notes Commitment Termination Date, the “Termination Dates”); provided, that each Commitment Party may agree in writing (which agreement may be evidenced by email of counsel) to extend any Termination Date with respect to its applicable Commitments in its sole discretion (each, an “Extending Commitment Party”); provided, further, that no Extending Commitment Party shall be required to fund the commitment of another Commitment Party in the event such other Commitment Party declines to extend such Termination Date with respect to its respective Commitments (the “Non-Extending Commitment Party”), but may at its option do so, in whole or in part, in which case such Extending Commitment Party shall be entitled to all or a proportionate share, as the case may be, of the Commitments and related fees, premiums or other payments that would otherwise be issued to the Non-Extending Commitment Party; provided, further, that any such reallocation of Non-Extending Commitment Party New Debt Commitments shall be negotiated between the Extending Commitment Parties. If any of the following events occur, then this Commitment Letter and the commitments hereunder shall automatically terminate upon the occurrence of such event unless we shall, in our sole discretion, agree to an extension: (a) the Bankruptcy Court shall not have entered the Final DIP Order (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Commitment Parties), on or prior to 30 days after the filing of the motion referenced in clause (ii) above, (b) the Final DIP Order shall have been amended, supplemented, waived or otherwise modified in a manner that is, in the aggregate, materially adverse to the interests of the Commitment Parties (taken as a whole), unless the Commitment Parties consent in writing, (c) prior to the entry of the DIP Order, Intelsat shall have affirmatively solicited any alternative financing that would be provided in lieu of the Credit Facilities or any of them, (d) the Case is dismissed or converted to a proceeding under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, (e) substantial consummation of the Plan occurs without the use of any of the Credit Facilities, (f) any of the Debtors files a plan of reorganization or liquidation other than the Plan (which shall not, for the avoidance of doubt, include any amendments, modifications or supplements to the Plan so long as such amendments, modifications or supplements do not have a material adverse effect on the rights and interests of Commitment Parties), (g) any of the Debtors files a plan of reorganization or liquidation that is inconsistent with the consent rights set forth in the Plan Support Agreement (as defined in the Plan), or (h) a trustee or examiner with enlarged powers (having powers beyond those set forth in sections 1106(a)(3) and 1106(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code) is appointed with respect to the Debtors and substantially all of their respective properties. The termination of any commitment shall not prejudice any party’s rights and remedies in respect of any breach of this Commitment Letter or the Fee Letter.

Notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, Section 4 above, as well as the indemnification and expenses, confidentiality, absence of advisory or fiduciary relationships, syndication, information, jurisdiction, governing law and waiver of jury trial provisions contained herein shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms notwithstanding the termination of this Commitment Letter or the Commitment Parties’ Commitments hereunder; provided that your obligations under this Commitment Letter, other than those pursuant to Section 4 and with respect to the syndication and confidentiality, shall automatically terminate and be superseded by the applicable provisions in the Credit Agreement and Indenture, in each case, to the extent covered thereby, upon the initial funding of the Credit Facilities and the issuance of the New Secured Notes on the Closing Date, as applicable, and you shall be released from all liability in connection therewith at such time.

(ii) any Incremental Facility shall benefit equally and ratably from the guarantees and, if secured by the Collateral, the security interests created under the Facilities Documentation, except that such Incremental Facility may be subordinated in right of payment or security, as agreed between the borrower and the lenders providing such Incremental Facility; provided that no Incremental Facility shall be guaranteed by any person other than the Loan Parties and, to the extent secured, shall not be secured by any assets other than the Collateral,

(iii) (x) any Incremental Revolving Facility Increase shall be on terms identical to the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility and (y) all other terms applicable to any other Incremental Facility (other than those specified in clauses (ii), (iv) and (v) hereof) shall not be more restrictive (taken as a whole) than those applicable to the Loans, except to the extent the terms of the Loans are modified to benefit from such more restrictive provisions, or such more restrictive provisions reflect then current market terms as reasonably determined by the Borrower or are applicable solely to periods after the latest maturity of the Loans,

(iv) (A) no Incremental Facility shall have a final maturity and weighted average life to maturity shorter than that of the latest maturity of the existing Loans and (B) no Incremental Facility shall participate on a greater than pro rata basis with the Loans in any mandatory prepayments under the Facilities Documentation; provided that, this clause (iv) shall not apply to any customary bridge facility so long as the long-term debt into which any such customary bridge facility is to be converted satisfies such limitations,

Equivalent Debt were an Incremental Term Loan) would have been satisfied; provided, that, the provisions of the preceding clause (v)(a) shall not apply other than with respect to any broadly syndicated institutional term loans that are pari passu with the Term B Loans in security and right of payment and incurred within 6 months of the Closing Date, and clauses (v)(b) and (v)(c) shall not apply to any customary bridge facility so long as the long-term debt into which any such customary bridge facility is to be converted satisfies such clauses. Existing Lenders may, at the option of the Borrower, but shall not be obligated to without their prior written consent, provide a commitment and/or make any loans pursuant to any Incremental Facility, and nothing contained herein constitutes, or shall be deemed to constitute, a commitment with respect to any Incremental Facility. The use of proceeds, if any, of any Incremental Facility will be as agreed by the Borrower and the lenders providing such Incremental Facility (and as otherwise permitted by the Facilities Documentation), and

(vi) (x) any Incremental Facility incurred to increase the amount of the Revolving Credit Facility may only increase the Revolving Credit Facility in an amount such that the Revolving Credit Facility does not exceed $500,000,000 and (y) no Incremental Facility (and, for the avoidance of doubt, any other basket capacity under the debt negative covenant) shall increase the amount of the Term Loan A Facility or, except as set forth in clause (x), otherwise be made on a “first out” basis.

“Secured Leverage Ratio” means, as of any date of determination, the ratio of (x) the sum of (a) Consolidated Total Indebtedness that is secured by a lien on the Collateral as of such date and (b) without duplication, the Reserved Indebtedness Amount (to be defined in the Facilities Documentation) secured by a lien on the Collateral as of such date to (y) Adjusted EBITDA.

“Total Leverage Ratio” means, as of any date of determination, the ratio of (x) the sum of (a) Consolidated Total Indebtedness as of such date and (b) without duplication, the Reserved Indebtedness Amount as of such date to (y) Adjusted EBITDA.

“Consolidated Total Indebtedness” is to be defined in the Facilities Documentation and will (x) permit unlimited cash netting and (y) exclude indebtedness in respect of any receivables facility or securitization facility, intercompany debt and cash management obligations.

		shall be unsecured and (vi) other than with respect to a refinancing of the Revolving Credit Facility, the other terms and conditions of any Refinancing Senior Indebtedness (excluding pricing, interest rate margins, rate floors, discounts, fees, premiums and prepayment or redemption (subject to the above clauses) terms and provisions which shall be determined by the Borrower and the lenders thereunder) shall not be more restrictive (taken as a whole) than those applicable to the Term Loans, except to the extent the terms of the Loans are modified to benefit from such more restrictive provisions, or such more restrictive provisions reflect then current market terms as reasonably determined by the Borrower or are applicable solely to periods after the latest maturity of the Loans.

Permitted Exchanges:		The Borrower will be permitted to incur indebtedness in the form of one or more additional series of (w) senior unsecured notes or loans, (x) senior secured notes or loans that will be secured on a pari passu or junior lien basis (but not on a “superpriority” basis) with the Credit Facilities, (y) subordinated notes or loans and/or (z) equity securities (any such securities, “*Permitted Exchange Securities”); provided*, that (i) such Permitted Exchange Securities shall be issued in exchange for Term B Loans through an offering made to all Lenders with Term B Loans on a pro rata basis (other than to those Lenders that may not be “qualified purchasers” or those Lenders that cannot receive the type of consideration being offered), (ii) such Permitted Exchange Securities that are debt securities shall not be in a principal amount that exceeds the amount of Term B Loans subject to such exchange, plus fees, expenses, commissions, underwriting discounts and premiums payable in connection therewith, (iii) such Permitted Exchange Securities do not mature prior to the maturity date of, or have a shorter weighted average life than, the Term B Loans subject to such exchange (without giving effect to any prepayments); provided that, this clause (iii) shall not apply to any customary bridge facility so long as the long-term debt into which any such customary bridge facility is to be converted satisfies such limitations, (iv) if secured by the Collateral, such Permitted Exchange Securities are subject to an Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement or other intercreditor arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and Borrower, and shall not be secured by any assets not securing the Term Loan B Facility, (v) none of the Borrower’s restricted subsidiaries is a borrower or guarantor with respect to any Permitted Exchange Securities unless such restricted subsidiary is a Guarantor (or will become a Guarantor), (vi) no Permitted Exchange Securities are secured by any assets not constituting Collateral and (vii) the other terms and conditions of such Permitted Exchange Securities (excluding pricing, interest rate margins, rate floors, discounts, fees, premiums and prepayment or redemption (subject to the above clauses) terms and provisions which shall be determined by the Borrower and the lenders thereunder) shall not be more restrictive (taken as a whole) than those applicable to the Term B Loans, except to the extent the terms of the Term B Loans are modified to benefit from such more restrictive provisions, or such more restrictive provisions reflect then current market terms as reasonably determined by the Borrower or are applicable solely to periods after the latest maturity of the Term B Loans.


Mandatory Prepayments of Revolving Loans:		If at any time the outstanding loans under the Revolving Credit Facility (including letters of credit outstandings) exceed the aggregate commitments with respect thereto, prepayments of such loans (and/or the cash collateralization of letters of credit) shall be required in an amount equal to such excess within one business day following Borrower’s receipt of written notice. Such mandatory prepayment shall not reduce the aggregate amount of commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility and amounts prepaid may be reborrowed. The Revolving Loans shall be prepaid (but with no corresponding reduction in commitments) with: (a) 100% of the first $1,250 million (minus the amount of any Term Loan A Reduction Amount and any Term Loan B Reduction Amount) of net cash proceeds of reimbursement, compensation or other payments or the right to receive reimbursement, compensation or other payments in connection with the transition of the C-band spectrum in connection with (i) reimbursement of relocation costs, (ii) accelerated relocation payments and (iii) payments received for clearing more rapidly than required by the C-Band Rules any of the lower 300 MHz of the C-band spectrum between 3.7 GHz and 4.2 GHz pursuant to private negotiations with third parties, if any, as set forth in the FCC C-Band Rules (collectively, “*C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments”) (excluding any excess C-Band Proceeds to be paid in connection with the CVRs); provided that the prepayment of Revolving Loans pursuant to this clause (a) shall not exceed $250 million; and (b) after the application of the first $1,250 million of C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments (“Phase I C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments”) required (i) as reductions of the Term Loan A Facility and Term Loan B Facility, (ii) as prepayments of the Revolving Credit Facility and (iii) under the section titled “Mandatory Prepayments of Term Loans”, 50% of net cash proceeds of C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments (excluding any excess C-Band proceeds to be paid in connection with the CVRs) (such amount, the “Required Prepayment Amount*”) to the extent pro forma liquidity (which shall include any such C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments and cash and cash equivalents and undrawn amounts of the Revolving Credit Facility that are capable of being drawn) is at least $400,000,000 and the Total Leverage Ratio is greater than 3.50:1.00 (with the Total Leverage Ratio to be calculated without “netting” the C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments proceeds just received); provided that, such Required Prepayment Amount shall be first applied to repay the Term Loans before being applied to repay the Revolving Loans.

Mandatory Prepayments of Term Loans:		C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments After prepaying any outstanding Revolving Loans on account of the first $250 million of proceeds of C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments as required under the section titled “Mandatory Prepayments of Revolving Loans”, Term A Loans shall be prepaid with (to the extent not used to prepay Revolving Loans) (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower shall not have ability to re-borrow or re-incur any Term A Loans so prepaid or incur or any other “superpriority” Indebtedness in lieu of the Term A Loans so prepaid):

(1) 100% of the first $1,250 million (minus the amount of any mandatory prepayment to the Revolving Credit Facility on account of the first $250 million of C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments, any Term Loan A Reduction Amount and any Term Loan B Reduction Amount) of net cash proceeds of C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments (excluding any excess C-Band proceeds to be paid in connection with the CVRs); and

(2) thereafter, 50% of net cash proceeds of C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments (excluding any excess C-Band proceeds to be paid in connection with the CVRs) to the extent pro forma liquidity (which shall include any such C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments and cash and cash equivalents and undrawn amounts of the Revolving Credit Facility that are capable of being drawn) is at least $400,000,000 and the Total Leverage Ratio is greater than 3.50:1.00 (with the Total Leverage Ratio to be calculated without “netting” the C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments proceeds just received).

After prepaying all outstanding Term A Loans as set forth above, Term B Loans shall be prepaid with (to the extent not used to prepay Revolving Loans or Term A Loans) (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower shall not have ability to re-borrow any Term B Loans so prepaid):

(2) thereafter, 50% of net cash proceeds of C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments (excluding any excess C-Band proceeds to be paid in connection with the CVRs) to the extent pro forma liquidity (which shall include any such C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments and cash and cash equivalents and undrawn amounts of the Revolving Credit Facility that are capable of being drawn) is at least $400,000,000 and Total Leverage Ratio is greater than 3.50:1.00 (with the Total Leverage Ratio to be calculated without “netting” the C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments proceeds just received).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any amount paid or payable in connection with any or all of the SES Claims (i) shall not reduce any prepayment required to be made under any of the Credit Facilities and (ii) for purposes of determining the amount of any prepayment required under any of the Credit Facilities, shall be excluded from determining any pro forma liquidity test (as if such amount had not been paid and were not payable) and shall not constitute any C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments.

Other Mandatory Prepayments

(a) 50% (with step downs to 25% and 0% at Total Leverage Ratios of 5.00:1.00 and 4.00:1.00, respectively) of Excess Cash Flow (to be defined in the Facilities Documentation but to exclude C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments), to the extent pro forma liquidity (cash and cash equivalents and undrawn amounts of the Revolving Credit Facility that are capable of being drawn) is at least $600,000,000;

Mandatory prepayments pursuant to clauses (a), (b) and (c) above shall be applied pro rata among classes of the applicable Term Loans and any pari passu Refinancing Term Facilities and pari passu Incremental Term Loans, except that Incremental Facilities for Incremental Term Loans, Refinancing Term Facilities and other permitted pari passu debt may participate in mandatory prepayments on a less than pro rata basis. Mandatory prepayments of the applicable Term Loans shall be applied to scheduled installments thereof in direct order of maturity (without premium or penalty, except, in the case of clause (b) above, subject to the Prepayment Premium (as defined below)); provided, that the Facilities Documentation shall provide that in the case of mandatory prepayments pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) above, a ratable portion of such mandatory prepayment may be applied to redeem, prepay or offer to purchase any indebtedness that is secured on a pari passu basis with the Term Loan A Facility and Term Loan B Facility, as applicable (collectively, “Additional Debt”), in each case if required under the terms of the applicable documents governing such Additional Debt.


		All prepayments referred to in clause (c) above are subject to there being no material and adverse tax consequences and to permissibility under (i) local law (e.g., financial assistance, corporate benefit, restrictions on upstreaming of cash intra-group and the fiduciary and statutory duties of the directors of the relevant subsidiaries) and (ii) material constituent document restrictions of non-wholly owned restricted subsidiaries (including as a result of minority ownership by third parties) and other material agreements (so long as any applicable prohibition is not created in contemplation of such prepayment). The non-application of any prepayment amounts as a consequence of the foregoing provisions will not, for the avoidance of doubt, constitute a default or an event of default, and such amounts shall be available for working capital purposes of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries as long as not required to be prepaid in accordance with the following provisions. The Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries will undertake to use commercially reasonable efforts to overcome or eliminate any such restrictions or tax effects (subject to the considerations above and as determined in the Borrower’s reasonable business judgment) to make the relevant prepayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any prepayments required after application of the above provision shall be net of any costs, expenses or taxes incurred by the Borrower or any of its affiliates and arising as a result of compliance with the preceding sentence. Any Lender under the Term Loan B Facility may elect not to accept its pro rata portion of any mandatory prepayment (other than with respect to Refinancing Notes and Refinancing Term Facilities) (each, a “*Declining Term Loan Lender*”).

Voluntary reductions of the unutilized portion of the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility will be permitted at any time, in minimum principal amounts to be set forth in the Facilities Documentation. Voluntary prepayments of Term Loans shall be applied to reduce installments thereof as directed by the Borrower (and absent such direction, in direct order of maturity), as applicable.


Prepayment Premium:		In respect of the initial Term Loan B Facility, any voluntary prepayment or refinancing (other than a refinancing of the initial Term Loan Facility in connection with any transaction that would, if consummated, constitute an initial public offering, change of control, material disposition or a Transformative Acquisition (as defined below)) of the initial Term Loan B Facility with other broadly syndicated first lien term loans under credit facilities with the primary purpose of achieving a lower Effective Yield (to be defined in Facilities Documentation) than the Effective Yield of the initial Term Loan B Facility, or any amendment (other than an amendment of the initial Term Loan B Facility in connection with any transaction that would, if consummated, constitute an initial public offering, a change of control, a material disposition or a Transformative Acquisition) that reduces the Effective Yield of the initial Term Loan Facility, in either case that occurs prior to the six month anniversary of the Closing Date and the primary purpose of which is to lower the Effective Yield on the initial Term Loan B Facility, shall be subject to a prepayment premium of 1.00% of the principal amount of the initial Term Loan B Facility so prepaid, refinanced or amended. For the purposes of this paragraph, “*Transformative Acquisition*” shall mean any acquisition by the Borrower or any of its restricted subsidiaries that is in excess of an amount to be set forth in the Facilities Documentation or either (a) is not permitted by the terms of the Facilities Documentation immediately prior to the consummation of such acquisition or (b) if permitted by the terms of the Facilities Documentation immediately prior to the consummation of such acquisition, would not provide the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries with adequate flexibility under the Facilities Documentation for the continuation and/or expansion of their combined operations following such consummation, as determined by the Borrower acting in good faith.

Conversion Date:		The Conversion Date shall occur upon the satisfaction in all material respects or waiver by the Required Lenders (as defined below) of solely the conditions precedent set forth in Annex II (such date, the “*Conversion Date”); provided* that, to the extent that the Conversion Date has not occurred on or prior to December 31, 2022, the Credit Facilities shall automatically mature on such date.

Voting:		Except as otherwise specified in this Credit Facilities Term Sheet, amendments and waivers of the Facilities Documentation will require the approval of the Lenders under the Facilities Documentation holding more than 50% of the aggregate amount of the Credit Facilities (the “*Required Lenders*”), except that (i) only the consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (and not the Required Lenders) shall be required with respect to: (A) increases in the commitment of such Lender (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent or the waiver of any default, event of default or mandatory prepayment shall not constitute an extension or increase of any commitment), (B) reductions or forgiveness of principal (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent or the waiver of any default, event of default or mandatory prepayment or commitment reduction shall not constitute a reduction or forgiveness in principal), interest (other than a waiver of default interest) or fees, (C) extensions of scheduled amortization payments or final maturity (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent or the waiver of any default, event of default or mandatory prepayment or commitment reduction shall not constitute an extension of any maturity date) or the date for the payment of interest or fees, (D) changes to the mandatory prepayment provisions with proceeds of C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments and (E) any modification of pro rata sharing or waterfall provisions under the Facilities Documentation among the Credit Facilities (ii) the consent of 100% of the Lenders will be required with respect to (A) modifications to any of the voting percentages, (B) releases of all or substantially all of the value of the Guarantors or releases of all or substantially all of the Collateral and (C) any amendments that subordinate any Loans in security or contractual right of payment to any senior indebtedness (including, in each case, any amendments that alter the “superpriority” status of the Revolving Facility and/or the Term Loan A Facility), subject to certain exceptions to be agreed, (iii) the consent of the Lenders holding the majority of the loans and commitments under (taken together) the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term Loan A Facility shall be required to (A) amend or waive the financial covenants and the related provisions and/or (B) increase the cap referred to in clause (vi)(x) under “Uncommitted Incremental Facilities” above or otherwise permit any additional “superpriority” or “first out” indebtedness. and (iv) any amendment or waiver that disproportionately affects a particular class of Lenders shall require the consent of Lenders holding a majority of Loans and commitments of such class. Defaulting Lenders (to be defined in the Facilities Documentation) shall not be included in the calculation of Required Lenders.


		The Facilities Documentation will permit amendments thereof without the approval or consent of the Lenders to effect a permitted “repricing transaction” (i.e., a transaction in which any tranche of loans is refinanced with a replacement tranche of loans, or is modified with the effect of, bearing a lower rate of interest) other than any Lender holding loans subject to such “repricing transaction” that will continue as a Lender in respect of the repriced tranche of loans or modified loans. The Facilities Documentation shall contain customary provisions for replacing Defaulting Lenders and terminating their commitments, replacing Lenders claiming increased costs, tax gross-ups and similar required indemnity payments and replacing non-consenting Lenders in connection with amendments and waivers requiring the consent of all Lenders or of all Lenders directly affected thereby so long as Lenders holding more than 50% of the aggregate amount of the loans and commitments under the Facilities Documentation shall have consented thereto. The Facilities Documentation may be amended solely with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any other Lender if such amendment is delivered in order (x) to correct or cure ambiguities, errors, omissions, defects (including to correct or cure incorrect cross references or similar inaccuracies) or (y) to effect administrative changes of a technical or immaterial nature, in each case, as jointly identified by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

Cost and Yield Protection:		Usual and customary for credit facilities of this type.

Assignments and Participations:		After the Closing Date, the Lenders will be permitted to assign (other than to natural persons, and to Disqualified Institutions) loans and/or commitments under any Credit Facility with the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and, solely with respect to assignments of Revolving Loans and commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility, each Issuing Bank and swingline lender (in each case not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that (A) no consent of the Borrower shall be required after the occurrence and during the continuance of a payment (or, after the Conversion Date, a payment or bankruptcy) event of default (except with respect to an assignment to a Disqualified Institution) and (B) no consent of the Borrower shall be required with respect to assignment of any Loans or commitments, if such assignment is an assignment to another Lender, an affiliate of a Lender or an approved fund. The Borrower will be deemed to have consented to an assignment of Loans and/or commitments if it has not responded to a request for consent to such assignment within 10 business days after receipt of written request thereof. Assignments will not be required to be pro rata. The Administrative Agent shall receive a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 for each assignment.


		The Lenders will be permitted to sell participations (other than to certain Disqualified Institutions). Voting rights of participants shall be limited to matters set forth under “Voting” above with respect to which the unanimous vote of all Lenders (or all directly and adversely affected Lenders, if the participant is directly and adversely affected) would be required. In addition, with respect to Term B Loans, non-pro rata distributions will be permitted in connection with loan buy-back or similar programs and assignments to, and purchases by, the Borrower and its affiliates on terms usual and customary for credit facilities of this type. Assignments of Term B Loans to the Borrower or any of its restricted subsidiaries shall be permitted pursuant to open market purchases or “Dutch auctions” so long as (i) in the case of “Dutch auctions”, any offer to purchase or take by assignment any Term B Loans by the Borrower shall have been made to all Lenders within the Term Loan B Facility (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, to each class of the Term Loan Facility) pro rata (with buyback mechanics to be set forth in the Facilities Documentation), (ii) the loans purchased are immediately and automatically cancelled and (iii) no proceeds from any loan under the Revolving Credit Facility shall be used to fund such assignments. There will be no caps on the amount of open market purchases by the Borrower or any of its restricted subsidiaries.

Since the Petition Date, nothing shall have occurred that shall have had, or would reasonably be expected to have had, a Material Adverse Effect (it being understood and agreed that the Cases, in and of themselves, shall not constitute a Material Adverse Effect). “Material Adverse Effect” shall mean any event, condition or occurrence that has had, or would reasonably be expected to have, a material adverse effect on the business, assets, operations, financial condition or results of operations of the Issuer and its subsidiaries taken as a whole (other than by virtue of the commencement of the Cases and the events and circumstances giving rise thereto and it being understood that the consummation of the Plan shall not constitute such a Material Adverse Effect); provided, however, that, to the extent constituting Disclosed Matters (defined as any event, circumstance, condition or other matter disclosed in the reports and other documents furnished to or filed with the SEC by the Borrower and that are publicly available on or prior to the date of the Commitment Letter), effects arising out of, resulting from or attributable to COVID-19 shall not constitute or be deemed to contribute to a Material Adverse Effect, and shall not otherwise be taken into account in determining whether a Material Adverse Effect has occurred or would reasonably be expected to occur, except that effects with respect to COVID-19 shall be so considered to the extent such effect disproportionately impacts the Borrower and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, relative to other companies operating in the same industries.

The Final DIP Order shall have been entered and shall authorize and direct payment in full of the Prepetition Secured Debt and the Existing DIP Credit Facility with the proceeds of the Loans and the Secured Notes.

The Final DIP Order shall be in full force and effect and shall not have been reversed, modified, amended, stayed or vacated or subject to a stay pending appeal, in any manner, without the consent of the Purchasers. The Issuer and the Guarantors shall be in compliance in all respects with the Final DIP Order and the Confirmation Order.

Entry by the Bankruptcy Court of an order (the “Confirmation Order”) confirming the Plan, which Confirmation Order and Plan shall (w) provide a resolution of SES Americom Inc.’s claims relating to the C-Band Alliance Agreement (the “SES Claims”) in a manner acceptable to the Purchasers and the Required Consenting Jackson Crossover Group Members, (x) otherwise be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Purchasers and the Required Consenting Jackson Crossover Group Members, (y) be consistent with the consent rights set forth in the Plan Support Agreement, and (z) be in full force and effect, not subject to a stay, and shall not have been reversed, modified, amended, or vacated, in any manner that is materially adverse to the Purchasers or the Required Consenting Jackson Crossover Group Members without the consent of the Purchasers or the Required Consenting Jackson Crossover Group Members, as applicable.

Prepetition Secured Debt and the Existing DIP Credit Facility shall be paid in full and the liens securing the foregoing shall be released substantially concurrently therewith.

Entry by the Bankruptcy Court of an order (the “Settlement Order”) approving the Settlement Agreement (as defined in the Plan), which Settlement Order shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Purchasers and Required Consenting Jackson Crossover Group Members and shall be in full force and effect, not subject to a stay, and shall not have been reversed, modified, amended, or vacated, in any manner that is materially adverse to the Purchasers or the Required Consenting Jackson Crossover Group Members without the consent of the Purchasers or the Required Consenting Jackson Crossover Group Members, as applicable.

If the Notes Closing Date occurs prior to the second-to-last business day prior to the Secured Notes Commitment Termination Date, the Credit Facilities Closing Date shall occur substantially contemporaneously with the Notes Closing Date.

ANNEX II

Conditions Precedent to the Conversion Date

The occurrence of the Conversion Date shall be subject to the satisfaction (or waiver by the Purchasers) of the following conditions precedent:

(i) Each of the Plan, the Confirmation Order and the Settlement Order shall be in full force and effect and no stay thereof shall be in effect, and shall not have been reversed, modified, amended, or vacated, or any provision contained therein waived, in each case in any manner that impacts the resolution of the SES Claims or is otherwise materially adverse to the Purchasers and the Required Consenting Jackson Crossover Group Members without the consent of the Purchasers or the Required Consenting Jackson Crossover Group Members, as applicable, and (ii) all conditions precedent to the effectiveness of the Plan shall have been (or will be substantially concurrently) satisfied or waived (to the extent such waiver is not materially adverse to the Purchasers) and the effective date under the Plan shall have occurred or will occur substantially concurrently with the Conversion Date.

No event of default shall exist immediately prior or immediately after the occurrence of the Conversion Date.

(i) The representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects on the Conversion Date; provided that any such representations which are qualified by materiality, material adverse effect or similar language shall be true and correct in all respects after giving effect to such qualification and (ii) no default or event of default shall have occurred and be continuing under the Notes Documentation or would result from any of the foregoing.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Intelsat Jackson Holdings S.A. (“Intelsat”, “you” or “your”) has (i) advised the parties listed on the signature pages hereto as Commitment Parties (each, a “Commitment Party” and, collectively, the “Commitment Parties”, “we”, “us” or “our”), that Intelsat and certain of its subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary Debtors” and, collectively with you, the “Debtors”), have filed voluntary petitions (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code, 11 U.S.C. §§ 101 et seq. (as amended, the “Bankruptcy Code”), and (ii) in connection with the foregoing, requested that the Commitment Parties agree to commit to provide, subject solely to the conditions set forth in Section 5 below, (1) a $500,000,000 superpriority secured debtor-in-possession revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”), (2) $500,000,000 of commitments for a $1,000,000,000 superpriority 364-day debtor-in-possession term loan A credit facility (the “Term Loan A Facility”) and (3) $2,875,000,000 of commitments for a $3,375,000,000 debtor-in-possession term loan B credit facility (the “Term Loan B Facility” and, together with the Revolving Facility and the Term Loan A Facility, the “Credit Facilities”), in each case, for you under Sections 364(c) and 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code, which Credit Facilities shall convert upon the satisfaction (or waiver of) the conditions set forth in Annex II of the Credit Facilities Term Sheet (as defined below) and emergence of the Debtors from bankruptcy under the Bankruptcy Code. Unless otherwise specified herein, all references to “$” shall refer to U.S. dollars. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meaning assigned thereto in the term sheets attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Credit Facilities Term Sheet”, together with this letter, the “Commitment Letter”).

1. Commitment.

To provide assurance that the Credit Facilities shall be available on the terms and conditions set forth herein and in each Term Sheet, each Commitment Party is pleased to advise Intelsat of its commitment (the “Commitment”) to provide, itself or through one or more affiliates or funds managed by such Commitment Party, the amount of the Revolving Facility, Term Loan A Facility and Term Loan B Facility, each as set forth on Schedule 1 hereto, on the terms set forth in the applicable Term Sheet (including, for the avoidance of doubt, giving effect to any reduction to such Commitment pursuant to the Term Sheet), subject solely to the conditions set forth in Section 5 below; it being understood that there is no Commitment to provide the Additional Revolving Commitments (as defined below). It is understood and agreed that the commitments of the Commitment Parties under this Commitment Letter shall be several and not joint. The Commitment Parties and you acknowledge that additional creditors (the “Additional Creditors”) will be providing (1) $500,000,000 of commitments for the Term Loan A Facility, (2) $500,000,000 of commitments for the Term Loan B Facility and (3) commitments for $3,000,000,000 of senior secured notes pursuant to a separate commitment letter (the “Creditor Commitment Letter”).

2. Syndication and Offering.

A. Credit Facilities

You hereby appoint Barclays Bank PLC (“Barclays”), Goldman Sachs Lending Partners LLC, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (“JPM”), Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and Credit Suisse Loan Funding LLC (in such capacities, the “Lead Arrangers”) to act, and the Lead Arranger hereby agrees to act, as lead arrangers and bookrunners for the Credit Facilities upon the terms set forth in this Commitment Letter.

It is agreed that (a) Barclays shall serve as sole administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) and collateral agent (in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”) under the Credit Facilities (in such capacities, the “Agents”), (b) JPM shall appear on the “left” of all marketing and other materials in connection with the Revolving Facility and Term Loan A Facility and will have the rights and responsibilities customarily associated with such name placement and (c) Barclays shall appear on the “left” of all marketing and other materials in connection with the Term Loan B and will have the rights and responsibilities customarily associated with such name placement. No other arrangers, bookrunners, managers, agents or co-agents with respect to the Credit Facilities will be appointed unless you and we so agree. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Intelsat shall not be prohibited from obtaining additional increases in the commitments to the Revolving Facility on the terms set forth herein such that the aggregate amount of commitments under the Revolving Facility is not in excess of $1,000,000,000 (such additional commitments, “Additional Revolving Commitments”) and awarding arranger, bookrunner, manager, agent or co-agent titles in connection therewith (without, for the avoidance of doubt, reducing the Commitment Parties’ commitments hereunder).

Each Lead Arranger reserves the right, prior to, on or after the Closing Date to syndicate all or a portion of the Commitment Parties’ commitments hereunder to one or more banks or other financial institutions reasonably acceptable to you (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed, conditioned or denied) that will become parties to the Credit Agreement (as defined in the Credit Facilities Term Sheet) pursuant to syndications to be managed by the Lead Arranger and reasonably satisfactory to you (the banks, financial institutions or other institutional lenders and investors becoming parties to the Credit Agreement, together with the Commitment Parties, being collectively referred to as the “Lenders”); provided that, notwithstanding each Lead Arranger’s right to syndicate the Credit Facilities and receive commitments with respect thereto and except as provided herein, (i) no Commitment Party shall be relieved, released or novated from its obligations hereunder (including its obligation to fund any portion of the Credit Facilities on the Closing Date, subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions set forth in Section 5 below and its obligation to convert the Credit Facilities upon the Conversion Date, subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions set forth in Annex II of the Credit Facilities Term Sheet), in connection with any syndication, assignment or participation of the Credit Facilities, including its commitments hereunder in respect thereof, until after the Closing Date has occurred, (ii) no assignment or novation by any Commitment Party shall become effective as between you and such Commitment Party with respect to all or any portion of such Commitment Party’s commitments in respect of the Credit Facilities until after the occurrence of the Closing Date and (iii) unless you otherwise agree in writing, each Commitment Party shall retain exclusive control over all rights and obligations with respect to its commitments in respect of the Credit Facilities, including all rights with respect to consents, modifications, supplements, waivers and amendments, until the Closing Date has occurred.

From the date hereof until the later of (i) the Closing Date and (ii) the earlier of the date of a Successful Term Loan B Syndication (as defined in the Fee Letter) and 30 days following the Closing Date (the “Syndication Date”), you agree to actively assist the Lead Arrangers in completing a syndication of the Credit Facilities reasonably satisfactory to us and you. Such assistance shall include (a) your using commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the syndication efforts benefit materially from your existing lending relationships, (b) facilitating direct contact (which meetings may take place remotely through electronic platforms mutually agreed upon) between appropriate senior management and advisors of Intelsat and prospective Lenders, in all cases at reasonable times and frequencies to be mutually agreed upon, (c) the hosting, with the Lead Arrangers, of no more than one meeting with prospective Lenders at times to be mutually agreed (which meetings may take place remotely through electronic platforms mutually agreed upon), (d) as set forth in the next paragraph, assisting in the preparation of materials to be used in connection with the syndication, including a customary confidential information memorandum (the “CIM”) and other customary marketing materials to be used in connection with the syndication of the Credit Facilities, (e) ensuring that, during the Syndication Period (and, if later, until the Closing Date), there is no competing issuance of debt for borrowed money by or on behalf of the Borrower or its subsidiaries announced, offered, placed or arranged (other than (i) the Credit Facilities and (ii) to the extent issued on or after the Closing Date, the New Secured Notes) without the consent of the Initial Lenders (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), in each case that would reasonably be expected to materially impair the primary syndication of the Credit Facilities and (f) using your commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, prior to the launch of general syndication, public corporate credit or public corporate family ratings (but no specific rating), as applicable, of the Borrower and public ratings (but no specific rating) for the Credit Facilities from each of Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) and Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, a subsidiary of S&P Global, Inc. (“S&P”).

You hereby acknowledge that (a) the Lead Arrangers will make available, on a confidential basis, such information, projections and other offering and marketing materials and presentations to be used in connection with the syndication of the Credit Facilities (such information, projections, other offering and marketing materials and presentations, collectively, the “Information Materials”) to the proposed syndicate of Lenders by posting the Information Materials on IntraLinks^TM, DebtDomain, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any other electronic platform chosen by the “left” Lead Arranger with respect to the applicable Credit Facility to be its electronic transmission system and (b) certain prospective Lenders may be “public side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders that have personnel that do not wish to receive material non-public information (within the meaning of the United States federal and state securities laws, “MNPI”) with respect to you, and your subsidiaries, the respective securities of any of the foregoing or the transactions contemplated hereby and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related activities with respect to such entities’ securities). At the reasonable request of the Lead Arrangers, you agree to assist in the preparation of a version of the information package and presentation consisting exclusively of information and documentation that is (a) publicly available (or customarily contained in any “public side” confidential information memorandum for senior secured bank facilities) or (b) not material with respect to you or any of your subsidiaries or any of your securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws assuming such laws are applicable to you or your subsidiaries (all such information and documentation being “Public Lender Information” and with any information and documentation that is not Public Lender Information being referred to herein as “Private Lender Information”). It is understood that in connection with your assistance described above, customary authorization letters will be included in the Information Materials that (i) authorize the distribution of such information to prospective Lenders and confirm to the Lead Arrangers that the public version of the Information Materials does not include Private Lender Information about you or your securities, (ii) contain an information representation consistent in form and substance with the information representation set forth in Section 3 hereof and (iii) contain customary language exculpating us, our affiliates, you and your affiliates with respect to any liability related to the use of the contents of such marketing material by the recipients thereof in violation of applicable securities laws.

Each Commitment Party, together with its respective affiliates, is a full service financial firm and as such from time to time may (a) effect transactions for its own account or the account of customers, and hold long or short positions in debt or equity securities or loans of companies that may be the subject of the transactions contemplated hereby or (b) provide debt financing, equity capital, investment banking, financial advisory services, securities trading, hedging, financing and brokerage activities and financial planning and benefits counseling to other companies in respect of which you or any of your or their respective subsidiaries or affiliates may have competing interests. You also acknowledge that the Commitment Parties and their respective affiliates have no obligation to use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, or to furnish to you, confidential information obtained from other companies or other persons. You acknowledge and agree that nothing in this Commitment Letter or the nature of our services or in any prior relationship will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship between any Commitment Party, any Agent and the Lead Arrangers or their respective affiliates, on the one hand, and you, your equity holders or your affiliates, on the other hand, and you waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims you may have against any Commitment Party, any Lead Arranger, any Agent or their respective affiliates for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty in connection with this Commitment Letter or the transactions contemplated hereby, and agree that no Commitment Party, the Lead Arrangers, the Agents or affiliates of any of the foregoing will have any liability (whether direct or indirect) to you in respect of such a fiduciary duty claim or to any person asserting a fiduciary duty claim on your behalf, including your equity holders, employees or creditors. You acknowledge that the transactions contemplated hereby (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions and that we, the Lead Arrangers and the Agents are acting as principal and in our own respective best interests. You are relying on your own experts and advisors to determine whether the transactions contemplated hereby are in your best interests and are capable of evaluating and understanding, and you understand and accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby. In addition, you acknowledge that we, the Lead Arrangers and the Agents may employ the services of our respective affiliates in providing certain services hereunder and may exchange with such affiliates information concerning Intelsat and other companies that may be the subject of the transactions contemplated hereby and such affiliates will be entitled to the benefits afforded to us and the Agents hereunder; provided that any such affiliates receiving information concerning Intelsat and other companies in accordance with this paragraph shall be subject to the same confidentiality obligations provided for in this Commitment Letter (with each Commitment Party responsible for its affiliates’ compliance with this paragraph).

3. Information.

may differ significantly from the projected results, and (iv) no guarantee or assurance can be given that the projected results will be realized). In particular, where Projections expressly or implicitly take into account the current market volatility and widespread impact of the COVID-19 outbreak, the extent of the impact of these developments on the Debtors’ and their subsidiaries’ operational and financial performance will depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak and related governmental advisories and restrictions, and the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on overall demand for the Debtors’ and their subsidiaries’ products and services, all of which are outside of the control of the Debtors or their subsidiaries, highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. You agree that if, at any time prior to the later of the expiration of the Syndication Period and the Closing Date, you become aware that any of the representations, warranties and covenants in the preceding sentence would be incorrect in any material respect if the Information and Projections were being furnished, and such representations, warranties and covenants were being made, at such subsequent time, then you will promptly supplement the Information and the Projections so that such representations, warranties and covenants would be correct in material respects; provided that any such update shall be deemed to have cured any breach of such representation if such representation is true after giving effect to such update. The accuracy of the foregoing representations and warranties, whether or not cured, shall not be a condition to the obligations of the Commitment Parties hereunder or the availability of the Credit Facilities. You understand that in arranging and syndicating the Credit Facilities we may use and rely on the Information and Projections without independent verification thereof.

4. Fees.

As consideration for the Commitment Parties’ commitments hereunder, Intelsat agrees to pay (or cause to be paid) the fees as set forth in the fee letter dated as of the date hereof, between Intelsat and the Commitment Parties (the “Fee Letter”); it being understood that, other than as set forth in this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter, no person shall receive any fee for its commitment or participation in the Credit Facilities without the consent of the Lead Arrangers and the Borrower.

5. Conditions.

The Commitment Parties’ Commitments and agreements hereunder in respect of the Credit Facilities are subject solely to the conditions set forth in Annex I of the Credit Facilities Term Sheet with respect to the Closing Date and, with respect to the Conversion Date, Annex II of the Credit Facilities Term Sheet. There are no conditions (implied or otherwise) to the commitments hereunder in respect of the Credit Facilities, and there will be no conditions (implied or otherwise) to the availability of the Credit Facilities on the Closing Date, including compliance with the terms of this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter or the Credit Agreement, other than those that are expressly stated or referenced in this Section 5.

Permitted Exchanges:		The Borrower will be permitted to incur indebtedness in the form of one or more additional series of (w) senior unsecured notes or loans, (x) senior secured notes or loans that will be secured on a pari passu or junior lien basis (but not on a “superpriority” basis) with the Credit Facilities, (y) subordinated notes or loans and/or (z) equity securities (any such securities, “*Permitted Exchange Securities”); provided*, that (i) such Permitted Exchange Securities shall be issued in exchange for Term B Loans through an offering made to all Lenders with Term B Loans on a pro rata basis (other than to those Lenders that may not be “qualified purchasers” or those Lenders that cannot receive the type of consideration being offered), (ii) such Permitted Exchange Securities that are debt securities shall not be in a principal amount that exceeds the amount of Term B Loans subject to such exchange, plus fees, expenses, commissions, underwriting discounts and premiums payable in connection therewith, (iii) such Permitted Exchange Securities do not mature prior to the maturity date of, or have a shorter weighted average life than, the Term B Loans subject to such exchange (without giving effect to any prepayments); provided that, this clause (iii) shall not apply to any customary bridge facility so long as the long-term debt into which any such customary bridge facility is to be converted satisfies such limitations, (iv) if secured by the Collateral, such Permitted Exchange Securities are subject to an Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement or other intercreditor arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and Borrower, and shall not be secured by any assets not securing the Term Loan B Facility, (v) none of the Borrower’s restricted subsidiaries is a borrower or guarantor with respect to any Permitted Exchange Securities unless such restricted subsidiary is a Guarantor (or will become a Guarantor), (vi) no Permitted Exchange Securities are secured by any assets not constituting Collateral and (vii) the other terms and conditions of such Permitted Exchange Securities (excluding pricing, interest rate margins, rate floors, discounts, fees, premiums and prepayment or redemption (subject to the above clauses) terms and provisions which shall be determined by the Borrower and the lenders thereunder) shall not be more restrictive (taken as a whole) than those applicable to the Term B Loans, except to the extent the terms of the Term B Loans are modified to benefit from such more restrictive provisions, or such more restrictive provisions reflect then current market terms as reasonably determined by the Borrower or are applicable solely to periods after the latest maturity of the Term B Loans.



Mandatory Prepayments of Revolving Loans:		If at any time the outstanding loans under the Revolving Credit Facility (including letters of credit outstandings) exceed the aggregate commitments with respect thereto, prepayments of such loans (and/or the cash collateralization of letters of credit) shall be required in an amount equal to such excess within one business day following Borrower’s receipt of written notice. Such mandatory prepayment shall not reduce the aggregate amount of commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility and amounts prepaid may be reborrowed. The Revolving Loans shall be prepaid (but with no corresponding reduction in commitments) with: (a) 100% of the first $1,250 million (minus the amount of any Term Loan A Reduction Amount and any Term Loan B Reduction Amount) of net cash proceeds of reimbursement, compensation or other payments or the right to receive reimbursement, compensation or other payments in connection with the transition of the C-band spectrum in connection with (i) reimbursement of relocation costs, (ii) accelerated relocation payments and (iii) payments received for clearing more rapidly than required by the C-Band Rules any of the lower 300 MHz of the C-band spectrum between 3.7 GHz and 4.2 GHz pursuant to private negotiations with third parties, if any, as set forth in the FCC C-Band Rules (collectively, “*C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments”) (excluding any excess C-Band Proceeds to be paid in connection with the CVRs); provided that the prepayment of Revolving Loans pursuant to this clause (a) shall not exceed $250 million; and (b) after the application of the first $1,250 million of C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments (“Phase I C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments”) required (i) as reductions of the Term Loan A Facility and Term Loan B Facility, (ii) as prepayments of the Revolving Credit Facility and (iii) under the section titled “Mandatory Prepayments of Term Loans”, 50% of net cash proceeds of C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments (excluding any excess C-Band proceeds to be paid in connection with the CVRs) (such amount, the “Required Prepayment Amount*”) to the extent pro forma liquidity (which shall include any such C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments and cash and cash equivalents and undrawn amounts of the Revolving Credit Facility that are capable of being drawn) is at least $400,000,000 and the Total Leverage Ratio is greater than 3.50:1.00 (with the Total Leverage Ratio to be calculated without “netting” the C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments proceeds just received); provided that, such Required Prepayment Amount shall be first applied to repay the Term Loans before being applied to repay the Revolving Loans.

Mandatory Prepayments of Term Loans:		C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments After prepaying any outstanding Revolving Loans on account of the first $250 million of proceeds of C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments as required under the section titled “Mandatory Prepayments of Revolving Loans”, Term A Loans shall be prepaid with (to the extent not used to prepay Revolving Loans) (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower

(1) 100% of the first $1,250 million (minus the amount of any mandatory prepayment to the Revolving Credit Facility on account of the first $250 million of C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments, any prepayments of the Term Loan A Facility pursuant to clause (1) above, any Term Loan A Reduction Amount and any Term Loan B Reduction Amount) of net cash proceeds of C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments (excluding any excess C-Band proceeds to be paid in connection with the CVRs); and

(2) thereafter, 50% of net cash proceeds of C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments (excluding any excess C-Band proceeds to be paid in connection with the CVRs) to the extent pro forma liquidity (which shall include any such C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments and cash and cash equivalents and undrawn amounts of the Revolving Credit Facility that are capable of being drawn) is at least $400,000,000 and Total Leverage Ratio is greater than 3.50:1.00 (with the Total Leverage Ratio to be calculated without “netting” the C-Band Proceeds and Clearing Cost Payments proceeds just received).

Other Mandatory Prepayments

(b) 100% of the net cash proceeds from issuances of debt by the Borrower or any of its restricted subsidiaries after the Closing Date (with appropriate exceptions for all permitted indebtedness); and


		All prepayments referred to in clause (c) above are subject to there being no material and adverse tax consequences and to permissibility under (i) local law (e.g., financial assistance, corporate benefit, restrictions on upstreaming of cash intra-group and the fiduciary and statutory duties of the directors of the relevant subsidiaries) and (ii) material constituent document restrictions of non-wholly owned restricted subsidiaries (including as a result of minority ownership by third parties) and other material agreements (so long as any applicable prohibition is not created in contemplation of such prepayment). The non-application of any prepayment amounts as a consequence of the foregoing provisions will not, for the avoidance of doubt, constitute a default or an event of default, and such amounts shall be available for working capital purposes of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries as long as not required to be prepaid in accordance with the following provisions. The Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries will undertake to use commercially reasonable efforts to overcome or eliminate any such restrictions or tax effects (subject to the considerations above and as determined in the Borrower’s reasonable business judgment) to make the relevant prepayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any prepayments required after application of the above provision shall be net of any costs, expenses or taxes incurred by the Borrower or any of its affiliates and arising as a result of compliance with the preceding sentence. Any Lender under the Term Loan B Facility may elect not to accept its pro rata portion of any mandatory prepayment (other than with respect to Refinancing Notes and Refinancing Term Facilities) (each, a “*Declining Term Loan Lender*”). Any prepayment amount declined by a Declining Term Loan Lender may be retained by the Borrower and used for any purposes not prohibited by the Facilities Documentation and will be included in the calculation of the Applicable Amount (as defined below).

Voluntary Prepayments and Commitment Reductions:		Voluntary prepayments of borrowings under the any Credit Facility will be permitted at any time, in minimum principal amounts to be set forth in the Facilities Documentation, without premium or penalty (except the applicable Prepayment Premium referred to below), subject to reimbursement of the Lenders’ redeployment costs (other than lost profits) in the case of a prepayment of Adjusted LIBO Rate loans prior to the last day of the relevant interest period. Voluntary reductions of the unutilized portion of the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility will be permitted at any time, in minimum principal amounts to be set forth in the Facilities Documentation. Voluntary prepayments of Term Loans shall be applied to reduce installments thereof as directed by the Borrower (and absent such direction, in direct order of maturity), as applicable.


Prepayment Premium:		In respect of the initial Term Loan B Facility, any voluntary prepayment or refinancing (other than a refinancing of the initial Term Loan Facility in connection with any transaction that would, if consummated, constitute an initial public offering, change of control, material disposition or a Transformative Acquisition (as defined below)) of the initial Term Loan B Facility with other broadly syndicated first lien term loans under credit facilities with the primary purpose of achieving a lower Effective Yield (to be defined in Facilities Documentation) than the Effective Yield of the initial Term Loan B Facility, or any amendment (other than an amendment of the initial Term Loan B Facility in connection with any transaction that would, if consummated, constitute an initial public offering, a change of control, a material disposition or a Transformative Acquisition) that reduces the Effective Yield of the initial Term Loan Facility, in either case that occurs prior to the six month anniversary of the Closing Date and the primary purpose of which is to lower the Effective Yield on the initial Term Loan B Facility, shall be subject to a prepayment premium of 1.00% of the principal amount of the initial Term Loan B Facility so prepaid, refinanced or amended. For the purposes of this paragraph, “*Transformative Acquisition*” shall mean any acquisition by the Borrower or any of its restricted subsidiaries that is in excess of an amount to be set forth in the Facilities Documentation or either (a) is not permitted by the terms of the Facilities Documentation immediately prior to the consummation of such acquisition or (b) if permitted by the terms of the Facilities Documentation immediately prior to the consummation of such acquisition, would not provide the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries with adequate flexibility under the Facilities Documentation for the continuation and/or expansion of their combined operations following such consummation, as determined by the Borrower acting in good faith.

Intercreditor Agreement:		The lien priority, relative rights and other creditors’ rights issues in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility, Term Loan A Facility and the Term Loan B Facility, on the one hand, and the New Secured Notes, on the other, shall be subject to customary intercreditor arrangement(s) to be agreed, and in form and substance acceptable to holders of commitments to the Credit Facilities (as of the date hereof).
